Shipwreck - Donovan

We filled our hearts with a cargo of smiles

Set sail for the Happiness Isle

On a course, a course so true

Now the sky don’t seem so blue.

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Sadness-bound, heartbreak ahoy.

We said our love would weather the storm

We had each other to keep us from harm

And when we sailed through the Straits of Doubt

You said you’d cast the sirens out.

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Sadness-bound, heartbreak ahoy, heartbreak ahoy.

You said that I’d be a jolly jack tar

Get spliced, go very far

And when we rounded the Cape of Sighs

You cast me away, love-shanghaied.

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love.

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love

Shipwrecked on the ocean of life

Shipwrecked on the ocean of love.
